FAM Essentials congratulates Kerri and everyone at Lantern Lane. !!!!!!

🎀 First Ever Ribbon Tying Ceremony 🎀

We are excited to celebrate our very first Ribbon Tying Ceremony with Lantern Lane Farm Counseling! Please join us on May 18, 2026, at 3 PM for this special event at 6201 Corinth Road, Mt. Juliet.

For 20 years, Lantern Lane Farm Counseling has been a valued part of the Mt. Juliet community, serving and supporting families along the way. Now, we are honored to officially “tie” them to the community through this special Chamber celebration.

This Ribbon Tying Ceremony represents connection, commitment, and the lasting relationships that make our local business community strong.

Join us as we celebrate their impact, their journey, and this exciting new chapter together!

It is because of THIS wonderful ministry--- that FAM Essentials was born.💕

Being homeless is exhausting. It’s an uphill battle that is not fixed overnight. When a family finally gets a place to live, their key unlocks the door that reveals an empty, cold, hard floor, not a place of comfort and functionality.
We are here to complete the process, making sure the home is ready to live in. Join us by volunteering and donating❤️
